A moment captured in time. Sonia Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi on their wedding day. Rajiv Gandhi first met Sonia Gandhi at a restaurant at Cambridge University and it was said to be love at first sight for him.

Only one song comes to mind when we look at this picture, “Sanwaar loon haaye sawaar loon.”

This looks straight out of a black and white movie. The hero and heroine enjoying time together with no care in the world.

Rajiv Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi surely made a great pair. The couple were married in 1968 even as Rajiv was at the cusp of his political career.

Sonia Gandhi is surely a vision of beauty and this picture is proof. If not a politician, she could have easily been a Bollywood actress.
